BMR ACTIVATOR FOR LIFT
uses electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) technology.
This technology has been used in hospitals and by physical therapists for
over 50 years. Here is a summary of how EMS technology works.
how does muscle stimulation technology work?
Stimulation
A gentle signal is sent
through the GelPads
to your muscles.
Contraction
As the signal strength
increases, the muscle
contracts exactly as in
normal exercise.
Relaxation
The signal then stops,
allowing your muscles
to relax before the next
stimulation begins.
